Mother’s choice - Season 1 - Episode 19

MARY’S POV
(The next day saturday)
We the cleaners close by 3:30PM, i was waiting for Abigail in our changing room, i took out my phone that i do hide and see mum’s message “MY PRINCESS I DROP SOME FOOD ITEMS THERE FOR YOU” i put the phone back and smiled

Abby: why are you smiling to yourself?
i look at the direction of which was and replied her

Me: i’m remembering my mum care

Abby: is she late?

i kept quiet for a while

Me: nopes, let start going okay

Abby: sometime your accent is like Britain accent
i shrugged and lied to her

Me: that is how my tongue is?

Esther: nopes that’s not how your tongue is!
We turn to the entrance Esther was standing with her lap top back smiling at us

Esther: c’mmon i’m going with you to your house today, remember you promised to take me there last week?

i glance at Abigail she nod for me to go

Esther: hey come you are going with us too
Abigail stare at me for any approval i just grab her hand and pulled her along she giggle
Soon we were in Esther’s car heading to my apartment, i think of what I’ll tell them so that my secret won’t blow up, i shrugged off, “I’ll will do it my own way” i conclude in my mind

Esther was trying to make the drive lifely by making the conversation lengthy, we got to the gate we i live

Me: Esty pull over here let me go in and open the gate
She obeyed and put the car to halt infront of the gate i heard Abby asked

Abby: what are we doing here Mary?
i pretend not to hear her and make my way inside the gate, i open it and beckon on Esther to drive in she hesitate before she drove in and parked then they alight

Esther: you live here?

Me: yes i stay here with my aunt

Abby: your aunt but you didn’t mention to me that….

Me: sorry i didn’t

Esther: is your aunt inside?

Me: Nopes she isn’t around, she travelled to the village last week

They both nod, i led them in a wow escape from abby

Me: welcome babes
My accent betrayed me again i tried to conceal it with our accent which i couldn’t remember the last time i use that language, the two Girl laughed at my childish manner, i couldn’t help but join them in the laughter

Esther: who is this your aunty she maybe rich because here doesn’t looked like someone who is poor can afford the rent
“Oh God help me out” i said in my mind, i told my mum i need a small one apartment and she went ahead and rent a self-contained apartment, God don’t let this implicate me

Me: see I’m like a maid here when she’s around but she catered for me since my mum ran to another country
i hate myself that moment for saying such nefarious word against my mum
